Purpose - As the importance of salesperson attitudes and behaviors enhancing customer perception and loyalty have increased, many retail companies put emphasis on internal marketing activities. The issue also has captured the interest of academics, but most of the previous research tends to be limited to investigating antecedents of salesperson job satisfaction and commitment. Based on the consumer-brand relationship concepts, this study aims to examine the effects of the salesperson-brand relationships on customers' service evaluation and store loyalty. Research design, data, and methodology - In a structural equation model, it is hypothesized that salesperson brand identification influences salespersons' brand trust and affect, which are the two dimensions of consumer-brand relationships. Salespersons' brand trust and affect are expected to increase salespersons' customer orientation, which in turn influences customers' service evaluations and store loyalty. To test this hypotheses a set of data collected from department stores in Seoul is utilized. Results - First, it was found that salesperson brand identification is a significant antecedent to salespersons' brand trust and affects, the two dimensions of salesperson brand relationships. Second, salespersons' brand trust and affect were found to enhance salespersons' customer-oriented behaviors. Third, salespersons' customer orientation showed a significant effect on customers' service evaluation. When a salesperson makes more effort to provide useful information for fulfilling customer needs, customers evaluate the salesperson's service more positively. Finally, customers' service evaluation had a positive impact on customers' store loyalty. Conclusions - This study provides significant academic and practical implications. First, based on the theory of consumer-brand relationships, the concept of salesperson-brand relationships was introduced and found to be an effective motivator of salespersons' customer oriented attitudes and behaviors. Therefore, the two dimensions of brand relationships, brand trust and affect, should be considered as the critical factors both in developing theoretical research and improving long-term company performance. Also, internal marketing activities should focus on maximizing employees' brand identification. That is, retail companies need to put emphasis on sharing their brand values and personality with internal customers to strengthen the brand relationships with salespersons and to enhance customer responses.

아주캐피탈의 경우에는 M&A 이후에 사용된 브랜드 전략은 두 회사 브랜드 중에서 하나의 브랜드만을 사용하는 단일 브랜드(one brand) 전략을 사용하는 것으로 결정하였다. 이를 위해서 M&A 이후에도 충분한 브랜드 이전 기간을 가지면서 기존의 대우캐피탈과 관련된 마케팅 하부구조(infrastructure)를 이전시키는 작업을 효과적으로 진행하였다. 흡수합병과정에서 아주캐피탈은 피 합병브랜드인 대우캐피탈을 우선적으로 사용하고 이전 단계를 거쳐서 아주캐피탈로 단일 브랜드로 운용하는 전략을 결정하였다. 즉 대우캐피탈이 아주그룹에 편입된 시기는 2005년이지만 적절한 때 사명을 바꿔 '대우'의 긍정적 브랜드 이미지를 이어가면서 '아주'의 론칭효과를 극대화했다. 이를 위해서 아주캐피탈은 조심스럽고 정교한 브랜드 이전전략을 수립하였다. 1) 대우캐피탈의 개별 상품 브랜드 "내게론" 강화를 통한 브랜드 연결화(Brand bridge) 전략 2) 고객에 대한 고객만족의 강화를 통한 아주캐피탈의 브랜드 이미지 구축 3) 아주 캐피탈 브랜드 단일화 단계 (2009년 9월-현재)를 거쳐 브랜드 이전 작업을 완성하였다. 현재 아주캐피탈 영업부문은 전문화를 통해 질적 성장을 구현하고 있다. 기존에 한 지점에서 여러 상품을 취급하던 것을 각 상품별로 전문화해 체계적인 양질의 영업 포트폴리오를 구축한다는 전략이다. 2009년에는 강남 지역에 수입차 전문 지점을 오픈했고 중고차는 6개의 전문 지점으로 확대했다. 아울러 개인신용대출 '내게론'의 영업지점을 3개에서 11개로 대폭 확대하기도 했다. 최근에는 주력인 오토금융 외에도 개인 및 기업금융에 활력을 불어 넣을 것으로 기대하고 있다.

This study is about pressure-accepting behavior of consumers attached to brands. Previous studies of the situation focused on time pressure and scarcity pressure, focusing on scarcity. The results of the study are as follows. First, consumers attached to brands were found to be relatively blunt in time pressures. This indicates that brands of consumers are attached to do not buy on impulse because of time pressure. Second, consumers attached to brands were found to be relatively under social pressure. This indicates that consumers who are attached to the brand do not buy with social pressures such as quasi-family groups. Third, consumers attached to brands were found to be relatively sensitive to scarcity pressures. Thus, a quantity-limited marketing strategy is generally more effective for consumers with high marketing effectiveness but high brand attachment. Fourth, unlike the one presented, consumers attached to the brand were found to be relatively insensitive to place pressure.

According to Resource Dependence theory, an organization's behavior and strategy is affected by external resources. An organization has diverse resources interacting with environment. Because organization cannot focus on all those resources, it concentrates on its critical resources. In market environment, firm responds to other firms by controlling their internal critical resources or manages interdependency with environment to get market share. Thus Firm should choose best behavior and strategy when internal and external resources are change. When new brand enters, incumbents might change their strategy to protect their market share depending on critical value. More precisely, incumbents sharing market with entrant respond, but incumbents having competitive internal resources do not. In this article, we study incumbent's responses to a new brand entry and long-term effect. We show that how incumbents change their price strategy in reaction to the new brand' entry and also show these responses vary depending on interdependency of internal resources and external environments and ownership.

Researchers do not fully understand consumers' responses to negative co-branding events; thus, they report inconsistent evidence regarding the negative impact on the partnering brands. Our research bridges a gap in this research stream, and answers an important question: When a service failure occurs, could the two different models of consumers' brand schema change affect their negative perception of each brand partner? By using a theoretical and mathematical modeling approach, we offer two propositions. The first proposition shows that, under consumers' book-keeping cognitive process, the negative spillover effect occurs for both brands. The second proposition argues that, when the sub-typing model is assumed, it is possible that one brand suffers while the other escapes the blame for the failure. To our knowledge, this is one of the first few studies to identify circumstances in which a negative spillover effect may or may not occur to brand partners in co-branding service failures.
